Tank Chats #16 Panther | The Tank Museum

- Tank Chats playlist • Tank Chats from The Ta... Probably the best German tank design of the Second World War.
The Panther was not as thickly armoured, nor as heavily armed, as tanks such as the Tiger but was probably a much more balanced design. It was one of the fastest German tanks, highly manoeuvrable and equipped with an accurate weapon. Its worst defect was a propensity to catch fire if the engine backfired.

We need a 20 min version of this
Yeah this needs to be way longer
Yeah, we need someone who isn’t the chieftain doing an in depth look I into it
I agree
20 millimeter
Indeed we do, it's an absolute engineering masterpiece in my opinion....... even though it had many teething issues through manufacturing problems. This is what happens when you rush a vehicle into service without A) a proper testing and evaluation process and B) yet again being over engineered.
Still a beautiful tank though, they obviously looked at certain qualities of the T-34.
“We all get excited about late World War 2 German camouflage schemes...”
Yes, yes we do
I know I do
Me
Very true !
I read this just as he said it...weird.
That paint scheme looks terrible.
Sneaky Jagdpanther at 4:16 :P
Nice catch :-)
Arto979 always great to see
of course!
pssht he was undercover :D
There are two.
Dear Tank Museum, 4 minutes is not enough for the Panther. Please make a 30 minute special talking about ausf D, A, G; how it was inspired by T-34 the Daimler prototype; introduction if side skirts, conversion to Jagdpanther; performance in the East and in the West fronts etc!
Imagine that. A paint scheme that saves paint, is effective, and frankly looks cool as hell? Fantastic.
A real tank lover, like the narrator, sounds happy when talking about a master piece. gj.
one of my favorite tanks
They need to restore the inside and outside to make it running again ^^
Rick VanD,you're right about that #I will be awesome
Why? Go for historical accuracy. Leave it broken down and rusting.
They restored Tiger 131, why leave the Panther out?
It's "brother" is actually still running in Germany (built in the same way by the brits after the war ended). You can find videos on youtube of it called "Panther im Gelände German Tank in Motion 2009". Sadly they don't really run it anymore as it seems.
Jan H. Moehle They seem to want to forget that history, so they can do it again is what's happening
I believe the French army used some Panthers after the war.
true
@MGTOW Republic of The Philippines really in iraq us 1991 panther tank still used??
faydu laksono Stugs III’s, Panzer IV’s and Jagdpanzer IV’s was used by syria in 67 during the 6 day war
so it wouldn’t be surprising if Iraq used some panthers when they were in a tight spot.
@@kshatriya1414 thank you for info
it inspired alot of post-war designs, the ARL series is supposed to be inspired by the Panther series. they did have late variants of Panthers in their army after the war too, I'm pretty sure you can find some research in french that were around at the time it was in service.
Dammit! IT IS BEAUTIFUL, isn't it?... Gotta give it to them!
Too bad the Transmission and Final drive sucked
To paraphrase rockstar Lemmy Killmister "it's not my fault the bad guys look so cool"
The Panther was just super looking!
Indeed but looks aren't everything 😃
That English accent and tone of voice is extraordinary, congratulations!
My favorite tank of all.
+Teutone PzKw 5 is the most aesthetically pleasing.
Teutone one of the best looking ones
Really enjoying this series. The Presenter is a pleasure to listen to and narrates the history of these tanks in a story telling way that is interesting to listen to. Well Done!
I honestly love the Panther it’s such a gorgeous vehicle to look at.
I like that raspberry ripple paint scheme 🍧
Same here
You are entitled to your opinion (and remember, that is all it is) but you are not entitled to be rude and offensive. I thought this presentation was excellent, by the way.
Freedom is the right to do anything that is not harmful to others, not to do as you please. Free speech does not include slander, libel, incitement to hatred - as the Law testifies. Rights also bring obligations and responsibilities. Decency and good manners should prevent you from insulting someone else, regardless of what you think of them.
My friend, I don't have a narrative. Just a lifetime of living in different countries and I've yet to find a functioning one where it's OK to insult people. You'll not go far with that attitude.
Hello again. Yes, it seems our discussion has become one about whether there are any limitations to free speech. If I understand you correctly, you argue there are not, that anything goes. I argue that there have to be limits, on the basis that one has no right to hurt others including their feelings and sense of worth. Leaving that aside for a minute, this exchange started because I felt your original comment on David Willey "It was painted icecreamlicious for this poopy pants pompous British know it all to make a fool of himself on TV" was unwarranted and offensive, and I thought about how he might feel should he read it. Being British is not a failing as far as I know, but as regards being a "know it all", he's the curator of a major single-subject museum, it's his job to be able to speak authoritatively on the subject. That's all he did. It seems to me that to defend your comment under the banner of free speech is disingenuous, and in my book you owe the man an apology. Your comment also contributes nothing to the subject and I'm surprised you felt it was worth posting.
Interesting to see the production facility photos, the welding positioning jigs were impressive.
A bit too short - for such an impressive beauty
That sloping armour, the fantastic suspension and 38mph speed. Plus a whacking great accurate gun. This tank is the complete package and years ahead of its time. Impressive!
Indeed.
It's amazing how u could say that about so much German WW2 weapons.
Rocket, jet, and submarine program ridiculously and hilariously further ahead.
@@4realjacob637 Zeiss weapon optics... created an oxygen induced process for hardening armour... created a welding process for mating armour pieces. Nightvision weapon optics... first to conceive and begin developing atomic energy... first to create synthetic oil... synthetic rubber... and synthetic textiles... first to make use of T.V. as an instructional and educational tool... created first amphetamine... center of philosophy and science and engineering.
Winston Churchill said it himself, "Germany is too powerful and must be destroyed".
38mph ?!! Thats very optimistic...
@@jimmytgoose476 You are right. Probably 29/ 30mph at best. But they look fast even when parked.
I would really like these videos to be ten minutes in length or longer.
A fantastic tank. An epic museum. Go there. Bask in the wonder of these mechanical beasts of war.
It would be really cool if you guys could redo all your old videos like this (or the King Tiger) that are quite short, I could listen to Tank Chats for hours.
Objectively speaking this is the best tank of the war if we look at it as a single vehicle. Jagdpanther was regarded as the best tank destroyer design by the allies. Good armour and mobility. Devastating gun and accuracy. Nightmare situation is to see your tank platoon getting destroyed one tank at the time but you have no idea where the shots are coming from. Hope those Typhoons or P-47's come soon. If we look at it in a bang for your buck sort of way...humble Stug III has amazing efficiency at a very, very low cost.
This guy has the best job ever
When your gun has good firepower but your engine has the power of fire.
I love that paint job.
it is called the 1/3 scheme. it uses a third of the paint. standard red oxide primer with dunkelgelb Camouflage over the top.
Invincible It would do pretty well where I live, we have alot of iron ore here.

The Saxon Panther
This Panther was (made) completed in Hannover lower saxony under British control shortly after the War, built by the Maschinenfabrik Niedersachsen Hannover MNH Factory and was produced together with some Jagdpanthers and other Panthers for brit. army trials in the UK.
MNH was the only german Factory producing Jagdpanther and Panthers together.
Because of paint shortage in late war parts of the camo was made of red Primer.
Panther G with early gun mantlet D,A,G type , i wounder that they had no late type Gunmantlets in MNH because the shape of the early type lead to a shot trap when a Round hits the lower part of the Gummantlet.
Many thanks video production team and David for an enjoyable and informative video
Thanks kindly for yet another tank chat. I certainly appreciate all these. If you see Mr. Fletcher, please pass on our regards. Many here miss him and do wish him well. :)
These tank museum videos are very,very good. More please mates!
There's an angel painting heaven in the background.
glareola those Typhoons never hit it, just kicked up a lot of dust & soil
Thank you David Willey. A short but very informative video. :)
What a great video!. Well spoken, clear, informative, just perfect.
wow another enjoyable video thank you very much!
NO..IT'S..TANK YOU VERY MUCH
My favourite tank- the sexiest tank ever built I’d say, maybe with the exception of the leopard 2
i love that apc look with the huge hull compared to the turret and a thin long gun. Though the cutest tank is probably the early t34 with rounded turret front and f34 gun (as seen in the tank museum vid)
I think the Chally 2 looks sexier than the Leopard 2.
The Panther sure is though. Jagdpanther even moreso.
Sexiest ?!! You need to meet some ladies 😃
I agree. We can get general tank history anywhere. Its the facts and story about the actual vehicle you have in your collection that will be unique and most interesting. Thanks
Thankt you for this short but good lesson, Sir.
My favorite tank, so much style and awesome look ..and about brakedowns ,it s just because of rush production ....so imagine if panther was aviable for battle in 1941.
Wouldn't have made any difference.
Thanks!
Lovely talk, thank you!
These tank chats are great. I may have to donate again to the Tank Museum! lol
Fun fact: a panther big cat is not actually a species of big cats but a hair colour found on leopards and jaguars
Black hair to be specific.
Love armor, thank you so much for this channel.
The best looking Tank ever created such an icon thank you!
Very nice. I love this series I hope to come visit your fine museum someday. And the rest of the country too. :)
Thanks for another fantastic video!
"medium tank" are you kidding me that thing is freaking huge
looks so impressive
Love these talks some of the most interesting on youtube 👌🏻
The British Sherman Fire Fly was a Panther Killing Machine !
TANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE VIDEO
It was a beautiful tank! Shame there weren’t more of them 😍
Or luckily there weren't more of them ;-)
there were 6000 concdering everything else thats an impressive number.
@Jim Goose Gernamy never had the resources of the US or the Sovjet Union, therefor comparing those numbers directly is of very litle use.
@@zafranorbian757 Soviet Union didn't have that much resources. The US and UK gave them a shitone of stuff
@@HellStr82 True, still Germany had even less resources as the sovjet union.
A longer video please, and a look inside the tank.
Bravo ! Always enjoy !
SOOOOOOO AWESOME, LOVE THIS TANK AND THE TIGER
Amazing suspension system. Complex, but very compliant with enormous wheel travel and floatation. Watching the tank driving off the tank transporter and moving at speed over the washboard track shows the suspension in action.
Excellent presentation thanks 😃👍👌👏👏👏
Jingles sent me. Love the video.
Jingles, now that's a name I've not heard in a long time
Great Work!
My favorite tank of all time!
we need this in Battlefield V. Maybe as a special reinforcement or another heavy tank.
Nice! Wish there was much more info about it, and combat stories.
Great video!!!
Love the tank but love the curators ability to speak even more
Well presented
i own a old Book about the german Tanks with alot of Pictures. It is also full of quotes and Battlereports of all sides. Theres a quote from a soviet Officer from the Kursk battle. It goes: ,, The Enemy introduced a new Tank, much like Type 34 . We have heavy casualtys at 2000Meters "
I do like your videos, nice to see you're getting into the later tanks instead of just WW1 and 1920's/1930's tanks. Do you also think you could do some of the more obscure stuff like the Damlier and Tetrarch?
I know! The Tetrarch is so cute, for such an imposing title. Plus you can land the thing behind enemy lines in a frickin glider.
Excellent 😊
great videos!
Awesome 👍
“Our problem child” guderian. Sweet Lines though! As an old welder it’s nice to see production photos. Big Jig Welding!
How can you only talk 5 minutes worth of content for this beauty?
I always hate when people use the side armor being weak as a problem with the Panther. Literally every tank is weak at the sides and back.
The KW-1 had redicolous side armour for its time, though yeah most MBTs still have side armlur that is weak to medium ww2 field guns.
Agreed - and by all measurements the Panther had pretty good side armor versus its competitors.
Still much prefer the Tigers but it boggles the mind how people nowadays are saying the Sherman is better. None of the vets I've talked to in person thought so...
Superb
You guys should do a longer version of this tank chat. Much like the other panzer variants.
Thank you.
My grandpa drove one of those
Ever thought about doing a special on the jagdpanther? You guys have done one on both the King tiger and the jagdtiger, so it would be fitting!
They did do a chat on the Jagpanther.
Look for it.
Love 'Tank Chats'...
Very good video good black and white film ( have been to the museum)
Please release a long-form version of this Tank Chat
Thats cool they made new ones after the War , so there are examples in nice working condition.
well im glad the length of the videos has increased a bit :)
Awesome Tank.. I collect the 1:16 all metal Tanks, up to 15 of them now, I have most of the main German Tanks and SPG.. Panzer III, Tiger 1 (x2), Panther G, King Tiger 2, Jagdpanther, Sturmtiger.. Really want a Jagdtiger next. Gets expensive, and they take up a bit of room...but look great!
I believe they said David was on vacation. He'll be back thouh :)
Definitely my favorite tank of the war. Wish more would've survived the conflict. Styling, power, armor, technology, survivability. At least after the bugs were worked out. I agree, the best tank produced during WWII.
@Jim Goose true to a point. Every tank had some issue. A product that proves nothing is perfect. Just like cars today. Some have electrical issues, tranny problems, or suspension problems. For the time period it was a piece of art. But that's my opinion.
Great vid, my only criticism is that id love to see more/longer! How about the centurion next?
Contrition sucks
The vibration suppression on the Panther was not surpassed until Leopard came along.
The US took the Panther as benchmark and the m48 finally came very close in all aspects.
戦車工場の写真は貴重ですね♪
Thank you David Willey.
Panther has wonderful lines, real menacing looking.
Can I ask, what the Next Tank that you will Be covering ?
Thank for the Chats Keep up very good work.
beautiful machine
Thanks.
OUTSTANDING
extremely interesting! maby do the Tiger 2 next? or talk about the panther F? because you have the turret next to your panzer iv
Zaqpak they don't have a fucking tiger 2
@@ianmooresguard1721 I know the Tiger 2 video wasn't out at the time but why so aggressive?
Because he's incel .
I love that paint Scheme.
Oh gosh oh gosh oh gosh when I saw that panther in my Sub feed I went Sploosh
I remember visiting Bovington yonks ago with my brother. Way before it was spoiled by all the lottery funding. We sat down to have a hangover cure in the café and this old buffer engaged us in conversation. Rumour has it that this gent has appeared in several featured tank museum videos.
I Didn't know the Panther was that big in real life.
Good video ;)
Yeah, a little too big, too tall, like the sherman. Made it a bigger target than it needed to be.
@@princeofcupspoc9073 I don't think it made too much difference, tanks are already a pretty big target.
